@Fonist
I'm sorry that you missed the nominations this time, spaces went pretty quickly and I wasn't aware that you were on vacation. I'll make sure to let you know when the nominations start for the next tournament though.

@All
I apologize if I did not use the links that you provided when you nominated your songs. Sometimes I do have to rush a little and I don't feel like searching through previous pages to find the right link, but i'll try to be better about that in the future.

1. Earthbound - Onett
2. Advance Wars: Dual Strike - Jake's Theme
3. Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box - London

@Emaan Glad you liked them. I just realised that both the links for N.M.H. and Gambit linked to N.M.H. and I've fixed that now so give Gambit a listen too if you want.
@CapnPancakes Okay, thanks.

1) DuckTales - The Moon
2) Advance Wars: Dual Strike - Jake's Theme
3) Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box - London

I'm really surprised that so many people like Onett Town that much - it just doesn't appeal to me, along with most of the games soundtrack. Granted Duck Tales is my nomination - it's too bad it had to be against a game like Earthbound.

1. DuckTales - The Moon
I did not like the Onett song very much at all. The Moon, however, makes me want to jump up and go run to the top of a mountain. I dunno, it's just so energetic and uplifting.

2. Advance Wars: Dual Strike - Jake's Theme
This song is pretty nicely put together. Toad's Road sounds too jumbled a little bit, can't put my finger on it.

3. Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box - London
The DRR:MM song does good for what it's supposed to do, that is as a DDR song. Though do not like it anyways and also find it annoying. London is just very atmospheric if you ask me, and I love it.

I'm really sorry for not getting this round up yesterday guys, but my internet has been giving me a lot of trouble. I'll be posting the rounds Thursday and Saturday because of this, but after that everything should be back on schedule.
Here is a link the the current bracket

1) Sonic Advance 3 - Route 99 vs. Mario Kart 7 - Toad Circuit

2) Castlevania: Symphony of the Night - Dracula's Castle vs. Wario World - Greenhorn Forest

3) Batman Returns - Stage 1 vs. Final Fantasy VII - Mako Reactor

1.) Mario Kart 7: Toad Circuit - Carries a rhythm within itself better and just sounds nicer to me.

2.) Castlevania - Both are good but I simply liked this one better.

3.) FFVII: Mako Reactor - Batman Returns was a great game but the first level music not so much. FFVII had great music throughout the game and Mako Reactor is no exception.

1) Mario Kart 7 - Toad Road.

2) Castlevania: Symphony of the Night - Dracula's Castle.

3) Batman Returns - Stage 1, I didn't like either of these songs, so I just went with this one.

1. Mario Kart 7 - Toad Circuit (Care to fix that?)
2. Wario World - Greenhorn Forest
I found myself listening to this more than the Castlevania song. However, I'll freely admit that Dracula's Castle is probably the better song. Regardless, my vote goes to Wario World.
3. Final Fantasy VII - Mako Reactor
Both were meh songs for me, but if I had to choose...

@CapnPancakez, you don't have to apologize to us :3

1. Mario Kart 7 - Toad Circuit
Very catchy.

2. Wario World - Greenhorn Forest
I like the bluesy vibe of this, although neither were amazing in my opinion.

3. Batman Returns - Stage 1
The Batman one was surprisingly good.

Edit: Changing my last vote, as I don't think there should be two first level themes from one game- and I prefer the other Final Fantasy VII theme anyways.

^ I'm a little curious how we have two Final Fantasy VII themes. Technically, the 'Bombing Mission' is the actual first level of the game, the 'Mako Reactor' theme plays afterwards. Oh well.

Also for future reference, "Onnet" is actually spelled Onett. (don't mean to nitpick here)

No contest, hands down. This track is so jazzy and fitting for wario.
Batman Returns- Stage 1
Wow, neither of those two were very interesting to me.

1. Mario Kart 7 - Toad Circuit
Don't mean to sound nitpicky, but that should say Toad Circuit instead of Toad Road.

2. Wario World - Greenhorn Forest
I don't know, I've always like this Wario theme...

3. Final Fantasy VIII - Mako Reactor
Both are good, this one is just better imo, haha.

@Emaan
I had something in the back of my head telling me that but oh well, I'll fix it when it comes up again.

1. Sonic Advance 3 - Route 99
I'm really surprised that this song doesn't have more votes. I find it really catchy, and that's not just nostalgia talking.

2. Wario World - Greenhorn Forest
Once again i'm surprised this song isn't more popular. I liked it better that the Castlevania track right off the bat.

3. Batman Returns - Stage 1
Neither song really amazes me.

1. Sonic Advance 3 - Route 99
Pretty good song, certainly better than the unremarkable and generic Toad Circuit
2. Wario World - Greenhorn Forest
I did like the Castlevania: SotN song but not as much as this catchy classic.
3. Final Fantasy VII - Mako Reactor
A good daunting, atmospheric song.

Wasn't today supposed to be a new set? Actually there are only 2 left right?

Hope I'm not too late with my vote:

1) Mario Kart 7 - Toad Circuit
I'm only going to vote for this only because of the instruments used. I liked both tracks.

2) Castlevania: Symphony of the Night - Dracula's Curse
Not a contest, Green horn Forest did not do much for me.

3) Final Fantasy 7 - Mako Reactor
Was not much of a fan for both personally, but I found this one easier to listen to.

Mario Kart 7 wins 10-3

Final Fantasy VII wins 8-5

Alright, we're down do the last two songs in this first bracket! After this, I will combine the winners with our other nominees to make the final bracket so the fun isn't over yet. Just to let you all know, i'll be gone this weekend so the next round won't be until Monday. It seems fitting, as we're closing off this first wave of songs, but it should also give me a chance to work on the new bracket.
Here is a link to the current bracket

1) Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations - Court Lobby vs. Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story - The WInd is Blowin...

2) Metal Slug - Mission 1 vs. Tetris DS - Super Mario Bros.
